There Are Only Two Things You Actually Need to be Happy
There are only two things you absolutely need to be happy. They don’t necessarily make you perfectly happy – although they certainly can – but they provide the foundation for building your happiness. It’s really hard to be happy without them, and it’s much easier to find happiness if you have them.

High Blood Ages Your Brain Faster Than Your Actual Age
An active and healthy brain is essential to a good life. As we get older, our brains also age and change form in measurable ways. Sometimes, the brain can even age faster than our bodies. For example, researchers have found that after age 40, the brain starts to shrink in size at a rate of at least 5% every 10 years and declines much faster for people over 70.

Steps to a Healthier Way of Life
According to a recent survey, just a small percentage of persons satisfy the requirements for leading a healthy lifestyle. Only 3% of American people scored perfect on the four essential criteria for healthy living, according to the research, which was published in the Archives of Internal Medicine. Barely 13.8 percent satisfied three of the requirements, while 34.2 percent only met two. Women outperformed males by a smidgeon.

Nativity
Today, the 6th of November, 2021, I accompanied Sophie's Native North American Art class to the Denver Art Museum. We were up early, especially considering that we went to bed at or around two in the morning - possibly closer to three, and at the Museum's welcome center before I had really asked any questions as to the subject matter we'd be reviewing at the Museum. When we got there & after a rather short wait outside because we got there a bit before they opened, we were with the class through a building I'd never been in before- one almost ENTIRELY dedicated to the work of various Native American or American Indian Artists (I've yet to come to an internal conclusion about the term American Indian. Being native myself, it feels inaccurate & like it validates the ego of the idiot Christopher Columbus- but perhaps I'm harsh). To say I enjoyed the exhibit would be an understatement; in fact, I'd venture to say it was the best museum experience I've had in a long time! More than enjoying it however, I had an epiphany on something one of the indigenous folks I know had told me recently.

Devising New Lifestyle Habits
I’ve always considered myself an active person, but after I had two children, I noticed that I was experiencing issues that I never had before. First of all, I had gained weight, and I was having trouble getting the weight off. Second, I was having issues where I would begin to fall asleep in the middle of the day, and last but not least, my heart rate was escalating at random times.
